Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We said goodbye in Marina del Rey
"I had a good time" was the last thing I heard her say
As I walked away
And on the plane back to Tennessee
My mind comes across her memory
And yesterday in Marina del Rey
[Chorus]
On a hidden beach, under a golden sun
She spread a blanket that we laid down on
And loved the world away in Marina del Rey
And as we looked into each others' eyes
We found our bodies lost in paradise
Like castaways in Marina del Rey
[Verse 2]
Like the ocean tide's highs and lows
Love sometimes comes and goes away
In Marina del Rey
And as this plane is touchin' down
Tears touch my eyes, for I have found
My heart has stayed in Marina del Rey
[Chorus]
On a hidden beach, under a golden sun
She spread a blanket that we laid down on
And loved the world away in Marina del Rey
And as we looked into each others' eyes
We found our bodies lost in paradise
Like castaways in Marina del Rey
[Outro]
And we said goodbye in Marina del Rey
